Barrhead Travel reveals next two store locations

Barrhead Travel has unveiled its next two branch locations which will be in Bury, Greater Manchester, and Worthing, West Sussex.

The latest locations take the total number of new stores announced to 19.

Barrhead has opened 11 new shops since October, including in Oldham and Stockport which welcomed customers for the first time at the weekend.

The exact locations in Bury and Worthing are yet to be confirmed but Barrhead said both are expected to be operational in the coming months.

Team members will undergo a training programme at Barrhead Travel’s Training Academy in Glasgow and “buddied” with experienced staff.

Jacqueline Dobson, president of Barrhead Travel said: “Worthing will be a hugely complementary addition to our portfolio in the south, joining Isle of Wight, Plymouth and Southampton in the most southerly stretches of the country.

“Bury will add to our Manchester footprint and will be the fourth store in Greater Manchester region.

“Brand awareness and engagement is growing steadily in both of these areas and the local communities have been receptive and welcoming to the Barrhead Travel brand.

“The announcement of a further two locations comes at a notable stage of our expansion project. We’ve made strong headway with the openings so far and the stores that have opened their doors are performing very well.”
